Mo joined the Department of Politics at the University of Glasgow in September 2005. His research focuses on the overlapping forms of violence perceived in (post)conflict contexts, applying insights from feminist theory to understand violent processes and women's responses. He has conducted extensive fieldwork in Central America, particularly in El Salvador, spending years as a development worker with local women’s organizations. From 2007 to 2016, he worked closely with Oxfam on a campaign to prevent gender violence in Central America. His recent research, funded by the ESRC-Newton Caldas project, centers on the Atrato River in Colombia, aiming to improve socio-environmental understandings and build sustainable peace. He has published on various topics in reputable journals such as Latin American Perspectives and Women's Studies International Forum, and authored the monograph 'Politics of Violence: Gender, Conflict and Community in El Salvador', published by Wiley Blackwell in 2009.
